"Joseph knew perfectly well that this would happen," said Lucius as Beth threatened her employees.Lucius took a white sheet of paper he had left outside his briefcase and handed it to Beth in her own hands.Beth was very puzzled. Her impression was so strong that she even let her guard down for a second to receive that sheet.She thought it must be something very important for Lucius Garner to approach so calmly knowing that she wanted to harm them both."What is this?" Beth asked as she received the document."Joseph called it an 'insurance' to protect Curtis from your infinite wickedness," explained Lucius."How dare you offend..." Beth prepared to attack Lucius with the bottle, but he stopped her with his hand and a very unsettling confidence."If I were you, I'd read that document first before gouging my eyes out with that bottle," Lucius said very calmly.Beth reduced her madness for a moment and prepared to read the sheet."It's an additional clause that Joseph wrote and sent a
Beth had woken up with a strong headache after spending the whole night having nightmares about Curtis following what she had experienced the day before. She dragged her feet on the carpet, and her body felt twice as heavy as usual. Placing her hand on her hip, she made small gestures of pain. She needed to have some tea or coffee to try to relieve the migraine that was ruining her life.She peeked out the door hoping to see some of her employees to order them to prepare something for her immediately, but that hallway was completely deserted. "Where are these parasites when you need them?" Beth complained as she peeked out the door. It was very strange not to see any of them. It was very early in the morning, and they were supposed to be fixing the rooms and preparing breakfast."Damn it," Beth realized she had to walk to the kitchen to be attended to, and that annoyed her a lot. A pink velvet robe was the only thing covering her body and the bad mood of having to walk so far to be at
That same afternoon, the main gate of the Stanton mansion slowly opened, and once open, very luxurious limousines began to enter one after another.Within seconds, there was a whole collection of marvelous vehicles surrounding the entire entrance of that gigantic property."What now?" Curtis wondered, hearing all the commotion, and rushed out to see what was going on.Beth and her children also went out into the garden to see what was happening and why all those cars had entered in that manner.The first limousine opened its door, and from it emerged a very well-dressed man who walked slowly to the other door and opened it with much respect.Charles Ballmer peered out and began to descend from the limousine, making a grand entrance, just as he loved.Beth was glad to see him. Finally, a familiar face. Someone with prestige and on the same level as her, she thought."Welcome!" said Beth with outstretched arms to hug Charles and with her lips ready to give him a welcoming kiss.But Char
"I can't believe Alfred also took the day off that Curtis gave to all the employees... damn traitor!" complained Beth in the kitchen, accompanied by Baxter.She stood in front of an electric coffee maker trying to brew some coffee for herself that afternoon when they were forced to fend for themselves."He was the first one out that door," reported Baxter, seated in a chair."Damn contraption," Beth cursed as she couldn't get it to work."I think you're supposed to put the water in first and then press that red button," Baxter indicated with his finger without getting up from the chair.Beth turned to glare at him with a look of anger on her face."Why don't you come and do it yourself if you know how?" Beth complained angrily.Baxter settled into his chair and assumed a much more comfortable posture. "No, not at all. I'm also on my day off."Baxter placed his hands behind his head and sighed to express his state of utter relaxation."You're another damn traitor," Beth said disappoint
Baxter went to bed after a very relaxing day at the wonderful pool of the Stanton mansion, taking advantage of that day off that Curtis had given to all the mansion employees.He fell like a rock onto his pillow, and within seconds, he was fast asleep. He needed rest to be ready to face the next day. His future within the mansion was uncertain now that Curtis was the new boss.Baxter began to have a very strange dream in which he couldn't move, no matter how hard he tried. Perhaps it was the phenomenon called 'sleep paralysis,' but this was much more vivid.He was even sure that he was still awake and could open his eyes. So he did, only to find Beth's face terrorizing him.Beth was sitting beside the bed, smoking a cigarette, exhaling smoke from her lungs, and smiling as she watched him, as if she were watching over his sleep.Baxter was terrified, and immediately he began to struggle with his body to move and get out of bed, but it was useless. His body was completely paralyzed, and
Amber's whim with Carson lasted just over two minutes. After that, he got off her and simply focused on getting dressed in silence.Amber was very sad about what she had done. She let her momentary madness lead her to make a serious mistake.It was very difficult for her to keep a fake smile on her face while Carson dressed. He also laughed uncomfortably, and she just dressed as quickly as she could and then almost ran out of the room.Halfway down the hallway, she collapsed, fell to the floor, and with her back against the wall, she began to cry inconsolably.Curtis was also having a hard time sitting on the edge of his bed while rubbing his face with his hands.His muscular, perfectly defined body marked with tattoos was something new for Kim. She remembered the weak Curtis she humiliated years ago. Nothing like this stud who was in the room with her."Love, come back to bed," Kim said as she hugged Curtis from behind."How much money do you want to leave my room right now?" Curtis
Curtis, for the first time, felt the pressure that came with being someone so powerful and understood that from that moment on, all his decisions would bring consequences.He increasingly understood Joseph and why he had such an indifferent attitude towards life.It was night, and Curtis Stanton waited in his private office, gazing out the window. In his right hand, a glass of wine, and in his left, the cane that was a symbol of Joseph.He thought about what had happened the night before and wondered why he didn't feel remorse even though he felt ashamed to look Cambell in the face.No matter how much he tried to pretend, Curtis could only think about Kim's naked body jumping on his, and deep down, he knew he enjoyed it as much as she did.Someone knocked on the door and immediately broke his concentration."Come in," Curtis said without turning away from the window."Dinner is ready, Mr. Curtis," said Alfred, with a firm attitude, like a seasoned service expert."Thank you, Alfred. I
Beth looked in both directions hoping to find empathy from one of her children, but they didn't look at her. They all looked at Curtis with great respect.Beth slammed the table with great force using the palms of her hands and then reluctantly stood up.She felt humiliated and underestimated, but at that moment she couldn't do anything. Curtis was in charge, and she had to obey."Oh, what a lovely touch," Curtis said sarcastically, placing his hand on his chest to mock Beth a little."Goodnight Curtis," Carson said angrily but respectfully."Goodnight, Curtis," Campbell looked down and didn't meet Curtis's gaze out of embarrassment."Goodnight, Curtis," Ágata seemed indifferent. Apparently, she didn't care."Goodnight, Curtis," Ander said, seemingly the only one on Curtis's side despite their previous fights."Goodnight, Curtis," Kim Ballmer used a seductive tone and a flirtatious look while laughing mischievously behind Campbell's shoulder.Her husband looked at her sternly, as if d
